I've handled RBTA before barehanded without any issues but last night when trying to get the new Black Widow BTA off the bottom of the plastic container I may have gotten stung or something. I was first tying to use my finger nail to scrape it off but had to resort to a credit card. Immediately washed my hands after but then started getting a tingling feeling in the finger and then a slight tightness in my hand that travelled upwards to my whole arm. Slight increase in heartrate and feeling of confusion too. Luckily it subsided in about 5 mins and didn't get any worse. I didn't panic but was worried so that probably didn't help either. But no messing around now going forward. Gloves will be mandatory when directly handling anything live.
